Note:

You can select Parallel to Line Direction or Perpendicular to Line Direction as the dimensioning direction when adding the first dimension. The rest of the dimensions are added in the same direction. If the direction of the line defining the dimensioning direction changes after the dimensions have been added, the direction of the dimension will not change. The dimension retains its original direction.
If several dimensions share an important basic line or plane, use baseline dimensioning or continuous baseline dimensioning.
You can remove or add dimension points by using the function Edit Chain.
